My browser (iceweasel) does include .mov as a supported format. All the files I try to play open a player applet, but it does nothing. Trying to open them manually with Totem results in a "Video Codec Advanced Video Coding (H264) is not installed" error message. I even installed the ffmpeg package - which, for some reason, the gstreamer plugin doesn't seem to depend on... I'm running a Lenny install dist-upgraded from an Etch install with the desktop task installed. Hardware sucks, so people should buy at least those who have some > documentation about how to deal with the mess. :-) Well, it is somewhat difficult in the case of video/wireless... It's probably near impossible to find a laptop with both a video and wireless chipset that don't require some type of binary blob. That said, I'm happy some are working on reverse-engineering the chipsets (OpenHAL, nouveau, etc) Tim
